In the South, it's traditional to eat black-eyed peas on New Year's Day for good luck in the coming year. I grew up in Arkansas and Oklahoma doing so. When I moved out West in 1980, I was stunned to find very few people who even knew what a black-eyed pea was.

For years we had big black-eyed pea parties on New Year's Day, and we made a lot of fans with this recipe. Our friends back in Arizona still have black-eyed pea parties on New Year's Day.

Hopping John is the dish known elsewhere in the South that combines black-eyed peas, also known as cow peas, with rice. In New Orleans, where the long-standing rule is to serve rice with every dish, this would just be called "black-eyed peas," as my friends Lynette observed.

Sounds like a nice little project for me to pursue tomorrow.

Cabbage or greens for good luck might be something I'm not used to doing, but if it brings me wealth in the New Year, I'll go the extra step.

Thanks for sharing.

I agree, Cyni. I hate black-eyed peas.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends. Paul Craig Roberts

"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." Frederic Bastiat

Used to have a variation of this often but not specifically for luck.
